Description
Once in the Yard, you ascend a metal staircase and onto a large balcony area which provides access to the maisonette and a neighbouring flat. Internally on the first floor you will find an entrance hall, living room and kitchen whilst on the upper level there is a landing, two bedrooms and a bathroom.
The flat has electric central heating and is double glazed. With the accommodation spanning two floors and having balcony space immediately outside the entrance door, the property feels more like a house than a flat and an internal viewing will confirm this.
The balcony offers a space to sit out and enjoy the sun before strolling into town and experiencing the local amenities, bars, cafes and restaurants. Kendal is full of independent shops and leisure facilities and there is a Marks & Spencer and Booths within easy walking distance.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
